An Overview
Active lifestyle wireless music and chats
With the Creative WP-250 Bluetooth® headphones with “invisible mic”, not only can you make
and receive phone calls wirelessly, you can enjoy your favorite tracks on the move. Designed
for today's active lifestyles, the WP-250 has an in-ear, behind-the-neck design that offers a
secure fit during any physical activity. It also features an invisible microphone for pristine-clear,
hands-free phone conversations.
With Bluetooth connectivity, nothing gets in your way - including tangled wires! - so you can
stay focused on your workout while immersed in clear wireless music. Adding to the WP-250's
superior audio qualities are acoustically tuned Neodymium micro drivers. Ideal for use with
compatible stereo Bluetooth-enabled mobile phones or MP3 players, you'll also enjoy basic
remote control operations like play, pause and skip track.
That's not all. A flexi-memory neckband provides a secure fit when worn and can be neatly
coiled for travel. A fully charged battery offers hours of uninterrupted music listening and talk
time - more than enough for that gym workout or hitting the streets!
